Run your distribution business better

Distribution companies, regardless of size, are all striving toward the same goals: profitable growth and cost control. The good news is that rapid growth and adoption of new technologies in distribution are making it easier to achieve these goals. The question for distributors is simple: Are you keeping pace with technology?

Distribution industry challenges

Distributors face many complexities in their business as a result of intricate product inventories, narrow margins, diverse downstream customer requirements, long lead times, and unpredictable supply. Challenges like these can be overcome when you have visibility and integrated business systems. See where your peers in distribution are making technology investments and seeing big results.

Business integration for single view of business

“We are utilizing technology in ways that reduce the labor required to complete routine yet vital tasks. Our staff can now spend more time on value-adding activities, and we are able to grow the business without adding additional staff.”

How can you use technology to compete?

Distribution companies that leverage modern technology to run their business increase their visibility around customers, products, and operations and make smarter decisions. They can also increase efficiencies across their business, whether through optimizing their warehouse or going mobile.
